1 Corinthians 4:13: "We have become the scum of the world, the refuse of all things." Paul is describing the apostolic life. The collect for Bartholomew asks the Church to love what he believed and preach what he taught. August 24 names the cost.
The CLARITY Act would create the first federal rules for digital assets. It gives the CFTC authority over crypto, lets companies raise money with less SEC oversight, and requires exchanges to follow anti-money-laundering rules. The Problem: It bans officials from profiting from crypto—but only the DOJ can enforce it, and the rule expires in 2029. That's not accountability. That's a performance. Bottom line: Sounds like clarity. Looks like control. Tested by scripture, it fails where it matters most—justice, checks and balances, and permanent ethics.

GENESIS 2:15 — NOT FOR ME, FOR HIM God placed Adam in the garden to work it and guard it—not to own it. What God places in our hands is something to steward, cultivate, and protect for His purposes.
